Cowboys finally get a turnover

HOUSTON – The Cowboys, who entered the game without a takeaway and a miserable minus-4 turnover ratio, finally have a takeaway.

Pro Bowl CB Mike Jenkins intercepted a deel ball intended for Andre Johnson with 5:36 left in the third quarter and the Cowboys nursing a 10-3 lead.

It was great timing by Jenkins, considering he was called for illegal contact on the play before the interception. Jenkins grabbed Johnson’s arm, turning what would have been third and 17 into a first down at the Houston 40.
